Lyrics

It was but just for a moment I saw it
I had to look away
It was but just for a moment I felt it
I had to turn and walk away
Oh, it was but just for a moment I lived it
A thousand lifetimes in the blink of an eye

A thousand lifetimes
Each one different yet somehow all the same
Each one of them with a common name
Each one beautiful driving me insane
It seemed like forever I had lived it
Oh, a thousand lifetimes in the blink of an eye

A thousand lifetimes
Had just flashed by
A thousand lifetimes
Lost in thought so crystal clear
Coming back to reality was my only fear
Lost in dreams so far and wide
The details of which I could never confide

I was completely powerless and dropped my guard
Now my world is broken and charred
Heart, mind and soul all no longer mine
All three had committed the most beautiful crime
I am happy to plead guilty
I will quietly do my time

Heart, mind and soul now forever gone
Long gone from this there would be no moving on
Heart, mind and soul now forever gone
Chasing my sanity across outer space
No way in hell I’d ever win this race
So far gone now I felt so small
Someone was surely laughing at all of this in their crystal ball

A thousand lifetimes with every blink of an eye
Never ending
No matter how much I try
No matter how much I try
